Global Crypto Adoption Index 2021

 

  • This ranking was based on the total cryptocurrency received, the amount of the virtual currency moved in transactions under $10,000, and peer-to-peer (P2P) trade volume.
  •  Finder, a US-based research platform, surveyed nearly 47,000 users worldwide, and 30 per cent of those surveyed in India said that they owned crypto.
  •  Finder’s report said Bitcoin is the most popular coin in India followed by Ripple, Ethereum, and Bitcoin Cash. The company also mentioned that India’s “huge expatriate population” makes it the world’s number one remittance recipient in the crypto space.
  •  WazirX, the largest crypto exchange by trading volume in India, said last week that it had seen more than 2,648 per cent growth in user sign-ups from Tier I and Tier II cities in India. This implies that crypto adoption in India has also been led by smaller towns in the country. WazirX has a claimed user base of 7.3 million users and said it has recorded more than $21.8 billion in trading volumes this year.

Methodology

  • The Global Crypto Adoption Index is made up of three metrics, which we’ll explain in detail below. The rank all 154 countries according to each of those three metrics, take the geometric mean of each country’s ranking in all three and then normalize that final number on a scale of 0 to 1 to give every country a score that determines the overall rankings. The closer the country’s final score is to 1, the higher the rank.
    • On-chain cryptocurrency value received, weighted by purchasing power parity (PPP) per capita
    • On-chain retail value transferred, weighted by PPP per capita
    • Peer-to-peer (P2P) exchange trade volume, weighted by PPP per capita and number of internet users

The Ranking

  • India has been ranked second in terms of crypto adoption in the 2021 Global Crypto Adoption Index by blockchain data platform Chainalysis.
  • The first position was claimed by Vietnam, while countries like the United States, United Kingdom, and China were behind India.
  • The report that ranked 154 countries said that worldwide crypto adoption grew by 880 per cent between June 2020 and July 2021.
  • It grew by over 2,300 per cent since the third quarter of 2019.

     Vismaya Nair.  The recent  death   of 24-year-old medical student Vismaya Nair in the Indian state of Kerala has sparked widespread outrage and renewed discussions over  dowries   and domestic violence in India. Despite their illegality, dowries are largely seen as a source of pride and status among families on both sides. The dark underbelly of the practice includes discrimination against girls, femicide, abuse and endless violence against brides in the country. Vismaya’s death renewed the   clamour  for a permanent solution that would end the harmful practice. Dowry In India Unravelling the murky  origins  of dowry in India  is not easy .

Does caste change after marriage?

* A woman’s caste does not change after marriage. Caste is determined by birth. By default , the father’s caste is the child's caste. Marriage does not alter the caste of someone. So, OBC lady cannot become a SC just because she married a SC male. However, the children of them will belong to SC as the father is a SC. However, there are certain exception in case child of such wedlock ( father UR but mother Reserved) who is raised in reserved community and separated or absence of father presence, he may be treated reserved as per mother caste. There are many exceptions : 1. When orphan child is adopted by mother of reserve caste. 2. When generation of Indian father of reserve caste live outside of India ( with no caste system) and when grand children return to India which caste they will be.
